In your actual use case you could use one of these scenarios

Rip the reissue then 

1. separate the tracks into two folders - one containing the "original"
and the other the "extras" and retag however you wish
or
2. leave the tracks in one folder but retag the original album tracks
with disc 1/2 and the extras as disc 2/2 and set LMS to display
accordingly.
